Charles Barkley's uncertain broadcasting future; media notes
Story Highlights
Charles Barkley says it will be a struggle to complete his four-year TNT contract
Jim Rome's horse wins the Breeders Cup Turf Sprint
Stan Van Gundy says he'd coach Dwight Howard again if given opportunity
Asked how long he wants to continue in sports broadcasting, Charles Barkley told SI.com something shocking: He's almost done.
"I love my job," Barkley said. "I love the people I work with. And I'm going to try to do things to keep me engaged. But I have four years left on my current deal and to be honest with you, it's going to be a struggle for me to make it for the whole four years. I really don't know how much longer I'm going to do this. I need something more, or something else to do to be honest with you."
In an extended interview with SI.com, Barkley was contemplative about his future as a broadcaster. The TNT NBA analyst has uttered similar things before -- including plenty of talk about an Alabama gubernatorial run -- but he offered extended remarks about needing a new challenge. "I only thought I would do this for three or four years but now I have been doing it for 13 years," Barkley said. "When I got to my fifth year of broadcasting I was like 'OK, I'll do this a couple of more years.' But now I'm like, 'Dude, you have been doing this for 13 years and if I make it to the end of the contract it will be 17 years.' Seventeen years is a long time. It's a lifetime in broadcasting. I personally have to figure out the next challenge for me."
Last year Barkley told his Turner bosses that he needed something to re-engage him. He asked to do more games onsite as an analyst and last January Turner assigned Barkley to the Heat-Hawks game in Atlanta with Kevin Harlan and Reggie Miller. Barkley loved it. "When I did the game with Kevin and Reggie I had a blast," Barkley said. "And judging by the feedback we got, I think the fans liked it too. I am excited to do that this year."
Barkley is currently scheduled to call two games as a game analyst in the first half of the season. He'll be in Miami for the Spurs at Heat (Nov. 29, 8 p.m. ET) and New York for Lakers at Knicks (Dec. 13, 8 p.m. ET).
Asked for something in broadcasting he'd like to do before he moves on to another profession, Barkley said he wants to call a college basketball game with ESPN's Dick Vitale. He even went so far as to tell his bosses at Turner about his wish. What was their response? "They kind of just blew me off a little bit," Barkley said. "But I don't get my ego caught up with that. Dick does a great job with college basketball and we do a great job with the NBA. I just think it would be fun for Dick and I to do a game together."
For his part, ESPN's Vitale said he'd be up for it. "Let's get it done with Dan Shulman at the controls," Vitale said. "Love the Round Mound of Rebound."
(SI.com examines some of the more notable sports media stories of the weekend)
1. Outside The Lines remains ESPN at its very best, and the program's investigation on a massive gambling operation targeting youth football games in South Florida is likely to win a public service journalism award. OTL first reported on the story in May 2011 and followed up this week after Broward (Fla.) Sheriff's deputies arrested nine youth football coaches and associates on felony bookmaking charges. The network's cameras were granted exclusive access for the arrests, producing compelling and important television.
"We had an opportunity to expose illegal activity going on around youth football, in plain view of children, and that could potentially be harmful to the development and future of these children," said producer Greg Amante, a member of ESPN's Enterprise Unit. "As we uncovered more and more information during our reporting, what was perhaps most disturbing was the actual paying of these kids to perform. We knew there was gambling going on -- we could often see it out in the open. But seeing it and documenting it on camera can be two different challenges. We had to position ourselves in the exact location where the betting was to take place, be there at just the right moment and make sure our hidden cameras were close enough and in the right position to document it."
Amante said the reporting fell under ESPN coordinating producer Dwayne Bray's investigative unit at ESPN. OTL investigative reporter Paula Lavigne, one of ESPN's best journalists, fronted the piece. She told SI.com that sourcing was a challenge. "People were afraid to talk out of fear of retailiation," Lavigne said. "We worked hard to find people, gain their trust and get information."
Full marks for all. Superb work.
2. The CBS broadcast of Alabama-LSU drew a 7.0 overnight household rating, the highest overnight rating for a college football game in 2012. (The previous high was a 5.9 for ABC's coverage of Notre Dame-Oklahoma on Oct. 27.) When the final numbers come out later this week, the viewership will be well over 10 million, but the game was significantly down from last year's Alabama-LSU meeting. That game drew an overnight rating of 11.9 and ultimately ranked as the most-watched regular-season college football game on CBS in 22 years.
a. ESPN owned the conversation around Alabama-LSU conversation thanks to its College GameDay crew broadcasting on Saturday from Baton Rouge, as well as a flotilla of ESPN writers and reporters tweeting from the scene all day. One wonders why CBS ceded this ground when they owned the broadcast rights to the game. The network had little social media presence around the game, and equally bad was CBS's college football pregame show, an invisible entity that offered a three minute lead-in before heading to game coverage. You can't be a studio player with zero presence and zero atmosphere. There's an easy solution: CBS should send its studio team (the regulars are Tim Brando, Spencer Tillman and Tony Barnhart) to the site of a mega regular-season game and use the CBS Sports Network to drum up chatter in the days and hours leading up to it.
b. What did CBS do well on Saturday night? It gave viewers great pictures on Alabama's final touchdown, starting with shots of Alabama sophomore defensive back Blake Sims and freshman Danny Woodson Jr. taunting the LSU crowd to LSU junior center Ben Domingue and senior defensive end Lavar Edwards and the crowd looking stunned. Best of all, CBS stayed with Alabama quarterback AJ McCarron during the postgame scene on the field, and got a money shot of the quarterback sprinting to the stands to hug family and friends. Even with an overly chatty Verne Lundquist and Gary Danielson, it was terrific stuff.
c. Dan Hicks was sensational as a fill-in for Tom Hammond (he was at the Breeders Cup) on NBC's call of the Notre Dame-Pitt thriller. The game earned a 4.3 overnight rating, which was NBC's highest-rated Notre Dame game of the season and NBC's best overnight rating for an Irish game since Sept. 11, 2010 when Michigan beat Notre Dame 28-24 on Denard Robinson's fourth quarter two-yard run.
3. CBS Radio host Jim Rome has been in the horse racing game for a number of years -- his stable runs under the name Jungle Racing LLC -- but he never experienced a day like he had on Saturday. The four-year-old filly Mizdirection -- co-owned by Rome -- hit the wire first in the $1 million Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita Park. "It was spectacular and surreal," Rome told SI.com on Sunday. "It really was thrilling." Here's the radio host with his prized filly.
4. Knucklehead of the week: Bobby Hebert. The popular Louisiana sports-talk host, a genial guy, was kicked out of the LSU press box on Saturday night after repeatedly violating working press box decorum and cheering for the Tigers. Here's the story from Yahoo! Sports' Pat Forde.

The Tao of Healthy Eating, Second Edition (9780936185927)
Publisher: Blue Poppy
Binding: Paperback
This book presents both the traditional Chinese teaching on preventive and remedial dietary therapy as well as addressing such modern Western concerns as high cholesterol, candidiasis, and obesity. The author begins with an introduction to the basic theories of Chinese medicine as they relate to digestion, diet, and health. He then goes on to discuss Chinese dietary recommendations for the most commonly seen Chinese patterns of imbalance amongst Westerners. After talking about the Chinese medical views on food allergies, candidiasis, cholesterol, obesity, and coffee, the author breaks revolutionary new ground by describing all the common vitamins, minerals, and amino acids as if they were traditional Chinese medicinals. This allows Westerners for the first time to pick and choose orthomolecular supplements according to the wisdom and theories of Chinese medicine. Next comes the Chinese medical descriptions of approximately 200 commonly eaten Western foods. Under each food, the author gives its nature and flavors, channel gatherings, Chinese medical functions, and indications. Armed with this information, if one knows their Chinese medical pattern of disharmony, anyone can determine whether a particular food is good or bad for them. The book is rounded out with an index and bibliography. The text is written in a clear, straightforward style suitable for laypersons with little or no prior knowledge of Chinese medicine.

George Bernard Shaw once said, "The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place."
Communication is an imperfect science, to say the least.
I picked up the phone just the other day and thought I correctly read the caller ID: "Lebanon Elementary School," the school where my wife works. So naturally, I assumed it was her.
But that's not what it said. And it wasn't her.

Radcliff police on Friday reported a possible scam after a series of unexplained telephone solicitations offered city residents a deal sounding too good to be true.
According to Radcliff spokesman Bryce Shumate, numerous calls were placed to city residents late last week from someone offering a free security system and one year of free service.
Police not only suspect that the offer is bogus, but that the person behind the deal has sinister motives.

Relieved Chronic Fatigue

Posted by Reviewer1990022 From New Mexico on Apr 15, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
I have no idea how this product works and I love it. A medical intuitive proscribed this for me years ago. I was taking maybe 20-25 pellets three times a day along with their Biochemic Phosphates in similar quantities to help with depletion. I also started drinking a lot of spring water, as recommended. Very quickly, I felt the chronic fatigue symptoms were relieved. I still like to take it sometimes and always have some on hand. Kind of a magical product for me.
great product

I used to have tightness in my hand in the morning after I played tennis previous day. I started taking these after reading about general benefits of keeping all the salts in balance and this worked awesome. I do not have to shake my hand to get me going anymore and I only take once a day 4 tablets. I am 45 active guy so I will take these for ever as salt balance is very important plus always avoid table salt, use minerals or sea salt.
take this every day

Very promising

Started with Hyland's biochemic phosphates and decided to add these, being the complete combo of all 12 of Schuessler's Cell Salts. Already feel a shorterm beneficial effect from these for my adrenal fatigue, feels very nourishing to the nervous system. Looking forward to see what this will do longterm.

Awesome Chinese Food – I am very picky about my chinese food and this restaurant fixes if very well. They deliver quickly and the food is very well prepared. I was so pleasantly surprised when I got their food and have been ordering from them ever since. Highly recommend!
LOVE LOVE LOVE – My family and I have been coming here for years. The people are always welcoming. The food has alot of variety for everyone and is very affordable. The one thing that could improve would be the dessert. As far as chinese food goes its quality cheep and easy to get to.
Great delivery service – I have never dined-in, but have ordered delivery from Dragon House several times, and have never been disappointed. The prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get; you can easily make 2-3 meals out of one order. The delivery driver has always arrived in reasonable time; we have never had to wait more than 30 minutes. Also, the orders have always been correct, even when we have made special requests. We are definitely long time customers! Oh, yeah, and it's delicious!
Fishers's best Chinese food – Decided to try this place today after reading the reviews. We were very impressed, and glad we ordered extra for leftovers tomorrow. Our chicken fried rice was perfect, just what it should be like. The meat to rice ratio was perfect. I could have done with less onion, but no biggie. All The employees were very friendly. Though I work on the westside of indy, I'm going to have to find more excuses to go to the northeast side more often.
The best Chinese buffet in Indy area – We've been going to Dragon House since it opened ten years ago, and have never been disappointed.
The food on the buffet is hot, fresh, tasty, plentiful, and very reasonably priced, and the restaurant is very well run. What impresses me most is that as soon as the supply gets low, they're right there bringing out another pan of food. They're also great at whisking away your dirty dishes so if you go back for seconds you don't return to dirty plates at the table.
Some of my favorite selections include the wonton soup, crab rangoon and spring roll appetizers, fried rice, cashew chicken, sweet and sour shrimp, beef with broccoli, and of course the plentiful dessert pastries, almond cookies, and soft-serve ice cream to top it all off.
Unlimited soft drinks and other beverages are also included in the price, something you don't see at all buffets these days.
It's a great place to bring a family -- my kids were little when we first started going -- but it doesn't seem to get terribly noisy like some restaurants do when they're filled with young kids.
We probably eat there about once a month, if not more often. In fact, I'm headed over there for lunch in a few minutes. After ten years, and with a lot of other nearby choices, I can't think of a better endorsement than that!
Honest delivery man!! – I gave the delivery man $15 for my food when he said this ddint include the driving fee but mentioned I shouldnt worry about it he'd take care of it. I insisted and went up to get a 20 and asked for $3 back. A few minutes after sending him off he returned to inform me I gave him too much I never took the origional $15 back. What an honest man! I will definitely be a return customer
Excellent buffet. Good variety. Food is kept fresh and hot. Great staff. No MSG used.
This Place is the Greatest! – I go here for lunch all the time when i work on the weekends. The food is great and the people are always nice. I love it and always come back for more. This place is awesome!
Best Chinese in Fishers! – I have ordered several different dishes from them and loved them all! Great food! Highly recommend!!
Best in NE Indianapolis area – I have enjoyed the buffets here many times. The last time, a gentleman in the serving area turned to me and said "Boy, this is the first time I've been here and the food is sensational". Frankly, I think every patron would echo this opinion - it really is wonderful and the price is very fair for the quality afforded. Last night I ordered to go - an entree with scallop, shrimp, chicken, beef and mixed vegs in a brown sauce. It was, without doubt, the finest Chinese food I've ever enjoyed.

Simon's TechNet blog
A few days ago the public beta of Office 365 was announced - one of the most important software releases from Microsoft in decades. For those unfamiliar with Office 365 let's just take a moment to gain an understanding of the offering before we dive into what's available in there for IT professionals. If you know what it is skip the next paragraph.
Office 365 is summed up by the folks in marketing with the strapline, "Everything Microsoft knows about productivity" which I think is very accurate. It is NOT a new version of Microsoft Office. It is Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SharePoint and Microsoft Lync running in the public cloud, meaning that we at Microsoft manage the servers to a 99.9% uptime service level from our own datacentres around the globe. There's more though, it's also Microsoft Office running in the cloud and Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus to install on your computers in some editions. The service is provided on a monthly subscription basis. For more information about the pricing and plans take a look at the Office 365 site. The pricing is why this is an uber important release for Microsoft. It moves Microsoft Office to a pay monthly option which frankly is huge…the whole capex to opex thing.
What's in it for the IT pro though, what makes it tick and click for you? Well there's a hefty helping of Powershell to keep you happy, there's new technology to get to grips with in the form of Directory syncronisation and the excitement of federating your Active Directory safely over the internet. The icing on the cake comes in the form of SharePoint goodness which, although it's mainly for developers is probably a place all you SharePoint heads will love digging about. So let's take a look.
The first thing you'll want to do is grab hold of some exciting word docs on the services within Office 365, so head to the service descriptions download (as it happens I'll be taking these with me on holiday to read).
Next you'll want to break open a PowerShell window and try some commands, there are lots (about 260 or so) but some of the goodness hidden within includes: Configuring Exchange Online mailbox sizes and limits, specify the email message format used for external recipients, requesting a Directory Service quota increase there are tons more things besides, but here's a handy search of the KB to help you in your discovery.
Next we need to get you thinking about some of the key infrastructure stuff you'll need to do, so how about learning all about ADFS as a primer? In fact you might prefer to learn it from Planky, our friendly UK Evangelist who not only understands ADFS but can also explain PKI to anyone in a way you'll understand. To be honest you'll probably benefit from a total understanding of how Exchange Online, part of Office 365, can co-exist with Exchange 2003. The 2007 and 2010 docs are coming but we are still in beta!
If you're a SharePoint head you're probably going to want to wrap your mind around a training kit and luckily MSDN already has materials materialising. There's a training kit available that's a thoroughly good read for anyone planning on doing anything deep with SharePoint.
Finally (and good for us all) are the skills you'll need to rollout the full version of Office 365 which comes courtesy of a new TechCenter on TechNet, however the skills will be very familiar to anyone who's rolled out Office 2010. It is the same product you know.
So there you have it, a whole bunch of handy resources to get you started on a journey with the beta, all you need to do now is visit the website and signup for the Office 365 Beta to start playing! If you want to know more, though, we are doing some in-depth stuff at Tech.Days 2011, so register to attend the Public Cloud for IT Professionals event @ TechDays, 25th May, London. Also check out the Office 365 Community and Office 365 Blog and Office 365 Wikis.

Richard Gonzalez, it turns out, is more of a self-made man than a lot of us knew.
The Abbott Laboratories veteran of more than 30 years, who is pegged to serve as chief executive of the pharmaceutical company spinoff that the North Chicago-based medical product giant plans to launch New Year's Day, rose to the top without benefit of a college degree.
That's not what his Abbott bio said for several years a decade or so ago, when Gonzalez was on its board of directors and it claimed he had an undergraduate and graduate degree in biochemistry. Now his bio merely says he studied at the University of Houston and worked as a research biochemist at the University of Miami School of Medicine.
The bogus degree information was repeated in several of Abbott's Securities and Exchange Commission filings and by various media outlets, including this one, before being quietly corrected a few years back. The fix went unnoticed and unexplained until Crain's Chicago Business brought it to light the other day.
Abbott, rivals and industry analysts speak well of Gonzalez, who was not available for comment Friday. But a dearth of information as to how the ersatz resume came to be, even with the company maintaining he had nothing to do with it, gives one pause.
We are a nation that typically cheers people who make their own breaks, up to a point.
There simply are some rules that should not, cannot be broken. We look up to people like Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, Apple's Steve Jobs and Microsoft's Bill Gates, who carved their own path despite dropping out of elite schools. We sneer at erstwhile leaders like Yahoo's Scott Thompson, Bausch & Lomb's Ronald Zarrella and RadioShack's Dave Edmondson, whose exaggerated academic credentials cost them their lofty positions.
"A pedigree, whether it be an Ivy League degree or your first few years at Goldman Sachs or something like that, means an awful lot early in your career," said Bob Reilly, chairman and co-founder of Reilly Partners, a Chicago-based executive search firm. "Later on, most places are looking for a person's experiences, what a person has done and achieved or led, and those degrees are not as important. … But it's a matter of integrity, too. If this person told an outright lie or misrepresented his academic background, I don't care how experienced he is. You can't have that. … It's game over."
Abbott spokeswoman Melissa Brotz dismissed Gonzalez's bad info as an innocent mistake by whoever prepared the biography, steering blame away from Gonzalez. Brotz said the prospective CEO of spinoff AbbVie has "had a distinguished career at the company and is well prepared for his new role" after serving Abbott in a variety of capacities for three decades before "reaching the highest levels of the company with great accomplishment."
Harry Kraemer Jr., former chairman and CEO of Baxter International, the Deerfield-based worldwide health care concern and Abbott rival, said it would be one thing if something like this came up early in Gonzalez's career.
"The fact that he has been as successful as he has, starting at the bottom and working his way up, he's obviously a very talented guy," said Kraemer, who's now an executive partner with Chicago private equity firm Madison Dearborn and a clinical professor of management and strategy at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. "The thing with Richard is, he has a long-established track record as a high values, ethical kind of guy. My sense is this will have zero impact.
"I teach leadership values and ethics. He strikes me as a guy I would trust. I have no way of knowing, but if you asked me to guess, I can picture a scenario that it's possible he described being at such-and-such a school and the person from human resources made an assumption or put it down in a way that made it appear he graduated."
Best as anyone can tell, Gonzalez spent but a year studying biochemistry at the University of Houston. The current bio says he majored in biochemistry at Houston, with no mention of how briefly he attended, and notes Gonzalez served as a University of Miami researcher en route to Abbott.
That neither Gonzalez nor Abbott detected the stench of the wrong credentials or moved to correct the details for at least six years, ending around 2007, speaks poorly. If there's an industry that's expected to keep meticulous records, triple-checked for accuracy, it's the pharma biz.
You want a drug that's been lab certified, not merely lab tested, before your pharmacist pushes it across the counter. For that matter, you want a doctor who has graduated from med school, not just attended classes, writing the prescription.
On the other hand, there are other professions where training matters less than performance. What do you care if the pro third baseman dropped out of school?
"There are a set of experiences required (of a CEO). Whether you get them through college education or hard knocks experience of being exposed to getting marketing, sales, manufacturing (research and development) or whatever, I don't think it matters," Kraemer said. "Is having degrees helpful to people? Sure. But knowing this guy's experience and what he's done over 30 years, will the fact that he doesn't have a college degree in any way affect his ability to do the job? I would say it will have zero impact. He's already proven himself."
Analytical skills, people skills and the ability to get things done are the priorities when it comes to choosing a CEO, Kraemer said. "But there's another underlying issue, which is, how did this happen? How does it happen that a company states that a person has certain qualifications and they don't?"
Kraemer said someone with experience and a strong work ethic who is willing to do anything to get in the door can overcome a lack of degree early on. Reilly was skeptical.
"It's hard to understand how he got in," Reilly said of Gonzalez. "But once you get in the door and get through all the hurdles and background checking that companies do, they're not going to do it again. … When he was (later) invited to the board, a nominating committee would have been responsible for doing the background on this guy before he was voted on to the board, and that sounds like where the mistake took place. The nominating committee should have nabbed this early on."
No one noticed. Now it has our full attention, and the question is whether the self-made man will be the architect of his own unmaking.

I have been working at OCC Computer
Pros – Relative freedom to choose target markets
Low pressure environment
Fully expensed travel to meetings and entertaining
Established brand name offers security
Cash rich business
Cons – Lack of incentives and recognition for high achievers
Poor holiday entitlement (unless you have been there for more than 5 years)
Poor benefits package compared to the competition
Negative employees not dealt with and allowed to affect others
Lack of career progression
Advice to Senior Management – Incentivise staff
Provide competition on the sales floor
Place more of an emphasis on training, guidance and helping people "invest in themselves."
I have been working at OCC Computer full-time for more than a year

Often overlooked in the legislation was a provision that would allow public schools to seek wavers that would enable them to try some of the same innovations. In other words, give public schools the same flexibility as charter schools.
All this went down in defeat. Now some of it is back.
The School Flexibility Act (HB84 in the House and SB54 in the Senate) would allow school systems to enter into "flexibility contracts" with the state that would exempt them from some state laws or state Board of Education policies, laws and policies that proponents say have stifled innovation.
The School Superintendents of Alabama support the plan. The Alabama Education Association does not.
AEA President Henry Mabry claims the bill is so poorly worded that it would allow school systems to eliminate tenure or require teachers to pay the full cost of their retirement.
Supporters of the bill point out that the process for getting a "flexibility contract" approved — a proposal from a superintendent, public hearings, action by the local board of education, and then approval in Montgomery — contains enough safeguards to protect teachers and administrators from the action Mabry fears.
However, there is another fear lurking out there for opponents.
Mabry has suggested that this is a "back door" way to get charter schools back into the education system. Others have pointed to the interest in Alabama being shown by Michelle Rhee, the controversial former chancellor of the Washington, D.C., school system, and her organization StudentsFirst. These observers are concerned that on the agenda is the introduction of "for-profit" charter schools.
This page supports the idea of school flexibility and feels Mabry may be overstating the case. However, if there is an effort to go beyond simply allowing local school systems the ability to seek exemptions so they can better address the needs of their students, this possibility needs to be brought into the light so it can be understood by all.
Above the usual Montgomery back-and-forth, the bills as written are so vague as to raise an eyebrow. Today proponents point to positive ways schools can put the bill to work. However, laws written with without specifics are prone to loopholes.
People who are comfortable with the status quo often see sinister designs when changes are proposed. Sometimes they are overreacting. However, sometimes they are right.

Holding two Olympic gold medals in his 81-year-old hands, Lindy Remigino breaks into laughter. The medals show their age. The stories do not. The stories never grow old.
"Look at these medals, I don't even know which one is which," said Remigino, who won gold in 1952 in the 100 meters and the 4x100-meter relay as a 5 feet 6, 138-pound kid from Hartford.
They came without ribbon lanyards in those July days 60 years ago, and there is nothing on them to identify the events. The boxes that once held the medals are gone, chewed up by his five children when they were little. And while there might be nicks and chips on the fading gold-plated medals, there is something Father Time and his kids' bicuspids could never take away.
"Once you're a gold medalist," Remigino said quietly in the living room of his Newington home, "you're a gold medalist forever."
He remembers the last time the Games were in London in 1948, and he remembers the stories by his father of the first time the Games were in London in 1908. Yet, what he remembers most vividly are the dreams of a 17-year-old high school junior.
"Track & Field News was first published in 1948," Remigino said. "I'd read it, seen all the names and times. My favorites were Mel Patton and Harrison Dillard. I admired them so much. Guess who passed me the baton in the relay in 1952?"
Harrison Dillard.
"So, yes, I dreamed of going to the Olympics in 1948. But the reality was I thought I'd be working in a box shop, making cardboard boxes, on Albany Avenue, because my family didn't have the money for college."
After 20 excruciating minutes of discussion and photo-examination to determine the 100 champion, sure, Remigino's eyes would well up as he stood atop the Olympic podium on July 21, 1952, and heard "The Star-Spangled Banner." Yet the truth is there already had been tears mixed in with the raindrops two days earlier as he watched the Americans enter Olympic Stadium with their blue blazers during the Parade of Nations, a deafening crescendo rose when Finnish legend Paavo Nurmi enter with the torch. They were the tears of a dream realized.
"I watched it all from the stands," Remigino said. "The coaches wouldn't let the 100-meter guys walk in the parade. We would have had to stand for four hours in the pouring rain on a muddy track, and we had heats the next day."
Growing up on Florence Street in the North End of Hartford, Remigino had known he was fast. He had known it since a "Play Day" race at the Hartford YMCA: Sprint to one end of the gym, touch the wall and sprint back to the finish.
"The guy handed me a ribbon and told me as soon as I get over to Hartford High to make sure I get on the track team," Remigino said. "I told him, 'I'm only 12.' He was like, wow, you just beat kids two, three years older than you by a lot."
As a junior at Hartford High, he would go on to win the 100 and 220 state and New England titles. As a senior he duplicated those feats. He played football, too, left halfback, 135 pounds soaking wet. He shakes his head no when asked if he ever told that to 1964 Olympic champion Bob Hayes, who went on to NFL fame with the Dallas Cowboys.
"No way, he would have laughed," Remigino said. "I was so light, if you hit me I landed in the first row of the stands. They called me the skinny guinea with the meatball eyes in high school."
OK, forget the NFL. There would be a scholarship to run at Manhattan College, erasing his fears that his education would end with making cardboard boxes. So sure, Lindy Remigino knew he was fast, but Olympic 100-meter gold medal fast? By the time 1952 rolled around few were betting on him after he took a fifth place in the NCAA 100 at Berkeley.
"But I also was second at the trials behind Art Bragg and I was beating everybody in the workouts leading into the Games," Remigino said.
He had arrived in Helsinki a few weeks before the Olympics on a first class flight, compliments of the New York Athletic Club. When the world's athletes arrived, however, they found themselves in different camps. This was the first Olympics for the Russians since 1912 and the Cold War was never colder. A separate Olympic Village, surrounded by barbed wire, was set up for the Eastern bloc athletes. A huge portrait of Stalin hung from one of the buildings.
So what does a young man think about in the hours and minutes before the Olympic finals? Well, Remigino thought about his mom, about June Haverty the love of his young life and about his dad who had died a few years earlier. Stefano Remigino had left northern Italy for England at 17. He regaled Lindy with stories about the 1908 London Olympics, about being in the stands for the marathon when Dorando Pietri of Italy collapsed in the final yards and his gold medal was taken away after being helped across the finish line. A chef, Stefano would travel to South Africa before moving to New York, starting an American family and eventually settling in Hartford.
Yes, there was plenty to think about following the semifinals after he finished second by inches behind Herb McKenley of Jamaica. Bragg had pulled out of the semis with a hamstring injury and suddenly anything was possible.
"I was laying in the locker room on a table, thinking, and Herb walked in," Remigino said. "He said, 'I was just with Emmanuel Bailey [of Great Britain]. He's so nervous. I think he's out of the way."

Oral Health Topics
"TB" is short for tuberculosis. TB disease is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The bacteria usually attack the lungs, but TB bacteria can attack any part of the body such as the kidney, spine, and brain. If not treated properly, TB disease can be fatal.
If you have active tuberculosis, you should only receive emergency dental care in a hospital. You should not visit the dental office for routine dental care because you pose the risk of infecting your dentist, dental hygienist and people in the waiting room.
If your tuberculosis is inactive, you can have dental treatment with no special considerations.

Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by infection with the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Infection occurs through inhalation of the bacterium, which then travels to the alveoli of the lungs. In most people who become infected, the body is able to contain the bacteria and prevent it from multiplying. The bacterium can live in the lungs of an infected person for years, even a lifetime, without the person exhibiting any symptoms. This state is called latent TB infection. A person with latent TB is not infectious to others but the infection can develop into active TB disease in the future and usually exhibits a positive reactive tuberculin skin test.
People with latent TB infection
- have no symptoms;
- don't feel sick;
- can't spread TB to others;
- can have a positive tuberculin skin test reaction; and
- can develop TB disease later in life if they do not receive treatment for latent TB infection.
Most people who have latent TB infection never develop active TB, but if they do not receive treatment for latent TB infection about 10 percent of latent TB infections can develop active disease over a lifetime.
This can happen when the person's immune system is weakened allowing the bacteria to become active and cause TB disease (e.g., individuals with HIV, diabetes, certain hematologic disorders such as leukemias and lymphomas, prolonged corticosteroid use, and other conditions). Only a person with active TB can transmit the disease.
People with active TB disease
- have symptoms (e.g., a productive cough, night sweats, fever, weakness or fatigue, weight loss, pain in the chest);
- feel sick;
- can spread TB to others; and
- can have a positive tuberculin skin test reaction.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has developed recommendations for preventing transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in health-care settings.1 For more detailed information refer to the CDC's report.
Routine Medical History
Ask all patients about past history of TB or exposure to TB. Ask about TB signs and symptoms and medical conditions that increase their risk for TB disease when taking their medical history. A diagnosis of respiratory TB should be considered for any patient with symptoms including coughing for more than 3 weeks, loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, night sweats, bloody sputum or hemoptysis, hoarseness, fever, fatigue or chest pains. The ADA's Health History Form contains these kinds of questions.
Dental Treatment and TB
Because a person with latent TB is not infectious, he or she can be treated in the dental office under standard infection control precautions.2
Any patient with symptoms suggestive of active TB disease should be removed from the area of other patients or staff, instructed to wear a surgical or procedure mask, assessed for the urgency of their dental care and promptly referred for medical care. Standard precautions are insufficient to prevent transmission of the bacterium. Elective dental treatment should be deferred until the patient has been declared non-infectious by a physician. Urgent dental care for a person with suspected or active TB should be provided in a facility that has the capacity for airborne infection isolation and has a respiratory protection program in place. OSHA describes a standard for respiratory protection, which should be consulted if setting up a program (CFR 1910.134 Respiratory Protection). When treating a patient with active TB, dental health care personnel should use respiratory protection (e.g., fitted, disposable N-95 respirators). Standard surgical face masks are not designed to protect against TB transmission.
Risk Assessment
The CDC recommends that dental offices perform an annual risk assessment. Risk assessment involves:
- Risk Classification—identifying the number of cases of active TB encountered in the office. The CDC classifies a low-risk setting as one where less than 3 patients with active TB are seen each year. An office that saw more than or equal to 3 patients with active TB in the past year is classified as a medium-risk setting. An office where there is evidence of a transmission of TB within the past year or one of the staff has a confirmed diagnosis of active TB is temporarily classified as potential ongoing transmission
- Community Awareness—being aware of the TB risk level in the surrounding community. Contact the local or state health department to find out the number of TB cases in the community.
Just because a dentist practices in a community with a high number of TB cases does not mean that that dentist's office is medium risk. The likelihood of encountering TB cases in that particular practice determines its risk category.
The level of risk for encountering active TB in the dental office determines the types of administrative, environmental, and respiratory protection controls needed. Annual risk reassessment can also serve as an ongoing evaluation tool of the quality of the office's TB infection control practices and allows identification of any needed improvements in infection control measures.
The CDC recommends that dental office personnel receive training and education on M. tuberculosis and TB disease that emphasizes the increased risks posed by an undiagnosed person with TB disease in a dental-care setting and the specific measures to reduce this risk. Training and education materials are available at:
http://www.cdc.gov/nchstp/tb/pubs/pem.htm and http://www.findtbresources.org.
Dental Healthcare Workers and TB Skin Test
The CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices does not recommend routine immunization (Bacille-Calmette- Guérin [BCG]) of U.S. health care workers against TB. However, the CDC does recommend that all persons in the dental office who have the potential for exposure to M. tuberculosis through air space shared with persons with infectious TB disease (which essentially means all personnel) receive a two-step baseline tuberculin skin test (TST) at the beginning of employment in low-risk settings, every 12 months in medium-risk settings and every 8–10 weeks in the event of potential ongoing transmission until no further evidence of ongoing transmission is apparent. By doing so, TST conversions (from a negative to positive result) following an exposure incident can be distinguished from positive TST results resulting from previous exposures. After baseline testing additional TB screening is not necessary in low-risk settings unless an exposure to M. tuberculosis occurs.
Individuals with a positive TST should consult with their physician to determine whether any treatment is required.

Reno >Food & Dining > Bertha Miranda's Mexican
336 Mill St, Reno, NV | Directions 8950139.525591 -119.807125
Mon-Sat: 10am-10pm, Sun: 10am-9pm
Neighborhoods: Ward 1
Phenomenal Carnitas and Chile Rellanos – As a long time resident of Southern California and Houston, Texas, Mexican food is something I cherish. Bertha Miranda's is my first choice in Reno. Their Carnitas are phenomenal, done just right with deep flavor, and they are one of the very few restaurants that make genuine Chile Rellanos. Fresh tortillas are an added bonus.
Best Mexican Food Ever! – We ate there 5 times last week while on vacation as the food was so fantastic! The owners are wonderful people, made us feel like part of the family. We never had to wait in line, but of course it is not top of the tourist season at present.
Great Food! – One of the great places to get Mexican Food in Reno! They're food is always amazing no matter what you order. Although, they usually have a really long wait, and are noisy due to how many people are there (and live music). It's a good place to go when you have a large group, or are interested in live entertainment and great Mexican food!
Incredible Guacamole – I went to Reno for just a few days and walked all the way from the Peppermill to Bertha Miranda's near downtown Reno, thinking it was just a short walk away, but it was FAR. I thought, this better be worth it, and it was. They had the best fresh guacamole ever. The portions were good and the cold beer pulled it all together. The decor is clean and down to earth and service was good. Great fresh ingredients.
User review by sierrasurfer – if you're thinking mexican, it's the only place to take a date. live band with dancing on the weekends, a mariachi band that will play requests, and the best food around.
Pretty Good – While the not nearly as good as mexican restaurants such as Blue Bonnet in denver and red Iguana in Salt lake this place is the best in Reno. Decent food, good servive and a nice location make this a great place to go.
Authentic taste, should have more variet – The food is excellent here, but I am a huge fan of burritos and I think they should have more varieties of them. Other than that, prices were good although they need free soft drink refills and food was excellent.
